Alabama Natural Heritage ProgramSM Page ii Alabama Natural Heritage ProgramSM Keeping Track of Alabama’s Natural Heritage

The Alabama Natural Heritage ProgramSM (ALNHP) was established by The Nature Conservancy in 1989 as one of a network of such programs. The Heritage network includes 50 U.S. States and the District of Columbia, 5 Canadian provinces, 12 countries of Latin America and the Caribbean and a host of other programs situated in federal agencies, Native American nations and other institutions. The majority of these programs are cooperative ventures between agencies of state or federal government and The Nature Conservancy making a public-private partnership collectively known as the Natural Heritage Network.

Natural Heritage Programs have three broad functions: to collect information on the status and distribution of species and natural communities, to manage this information in a standardized way, and to disseminate this information to a wide array of users. Natural Heritage Programs use a standardized information management system to track biodiversity data including , distribution, population trends, requirements, relative abundance, quality, condition, and viability. Programs also track non-biological information including land ownership , land-use and management, distribution of protected areas, and threats to species or their habitat.

ALNHP serves as the science office of The Nature Conservancy of Alabama. It supports the Chapter by supplying biodiversity data, site prioritization, ecoregional and site conservation planning, ecological monitoring and burning, and land management expertise. ALNHP does this with support from public and private partners in conservation. ALNHP is also a member of the Natural Heritage Network and is represented by its membership organization NatureServe. NatureServe works to aggregate data from individual Network Programs and is dedicated to the furtherance of the Network and the application of Heritage data to biodiversity conservation.

One of the important tasks each heritage program performs is the regular compilation of a "Rare Species Inventory List" for the state that ranks by priority each element based on the number and quality of occurrences. Although these lists are compiled using the best scientific information available at the time, there is always more current information available on a particular species, distribution and/or status. We would appreciate any new information on the location, abundance, or rarity of any of the species on the following list. Please send your comments to the appropriate staff member:

Alabama Natural Heritage ProgramSM Page 2 Definition of Heritage Ranks

The Alabama Natural Heritage Program uses the Heritage ranking system developed by The Nature Conservancy. Each species is assigned two ranks; one representing its range-wide or global status (G rank), and one representing its status in the state (S rank). Species with a rank of 1 are most critically imperiled; those with a rank of 5 are most secure.

Global Ranking System State Ranking System

G1 Critically Imperiled – At very high risk of S1 Critically imperiled in Alabama because of due to extreme rarity (often 5 or fewer extreme rarity (5 or fewer occurrences of very populations), very steep declines, or other few remaining individuals or acres) or because of factors. some factor(s) making it especially vulnerable to extirpation from Alabama. G2 Imperiled – At high risk of extinction due to very restricted range, very few populations (often 20 S2 Imperiled in state because of rarity (6 to 20 or fewer), steep declines, or other factors. occurrences or few remaining individuals or acres) or because of some factor(s) making it G3 Vulnerable – At moderate risk of extinction due very vulnerable to extirpation from Alabama. to a restricted range, relatively few populations (often 80 or fewer), recent and widespread S3 Rare or uncommon in Alabama (on the order of declines, or other factors. 21 to 100 occurrences).

G4 Apparently Secure – Uncommon but not rare; S4 Apparently secure in Alabama, with many some cause for long-term concern due to occurrences. declines or other factors. S5 Demonstrably secure in Alabama and essentially G5 Secure – Common; widespread and abundant. "ineradicable" under present conditions.

GX Presumed Extinct (species) – Not located despite SX Presumed Extirpated – Species or community is intensive searches and virtually no likelihood of believed to be extirpated from Alabama. Not rediscovery. located despite intensive searches of historical Eliminated (ecological communities) – sites and other appropriate habitat, and virtually Eliminated throughout its range, with no no likelihood that it will be rediscovered. restoration potential due to extinction of dominant or characteristic species. SH Historical (Possibly Extirpated) – Species or community occurred historically in Alabama, GH Of historical occurrence throughout its range. and there is some possibility that it may be Possibly Extinct (species) – Missing; known rediscovered. Its presence may not have been from only historical occurrences but still some verified in the past 20-40 years.

SNR Unranked – State not yet assessed. GNR Not ranked to date. SA Accidental in Alabama, including species G#T# Infraspecific Taxon (trinomial) – The status of (usually birds or ) recorded once or infraspecific taxa (subspecies or varieties) are twice or only at very great intervals, hundreds or indicated by a "T-rank" following the species' even thousands of miles outside their usual global rank. Rules for assigning T-ranks follow range; a few of these species may even have bred the same principles outlined above for global on the one or two occasions they were recorded. conservation status ranks. A T-rank cannot imply the subspecies or variety is more abundant than SU Unrankable – Currently unrankable due to lack the species as a whole-for example, a G1T2 of information or due to substantially conflicting cannot occur.

Alabama Natural Heritage ProgramSM Page 3 Variant Ranks and Rank Modifiers Special State Ranking for Migrants

G#G# Range Rank – A numeric range rank (e.g., SB Regularly occurring, migratory and present only G2G3) is used to indicate the range of during the breeding season. A rank of S3B uncertainty in the status of a species or indicates a species uncommon during the community (e.g., an element may be given a G- breeding season (spring/summer) in Alabama. rank of G2G3, indicating global status is somewhere between imperiled and vulnerable). SN Regularly occurring, usually migratory and Ranges cannot skip more than one rank (e.g., GU typically non-breeding species in Alabama; this should be used rather than G1G4). Also applies category includes migratory birds, bats, sea to state ranks (e.g., S2S3) turtles, and cetaceans which do not breed in Alabama but pass through twice a year or may HYB Hybrid remain in winter. A rank of S2B,S5N indicated a rare breeder but a common winter resident. Q Questionable taxonomy – Taxonomic distinctiveness of this entity at the current level Note: Species that have resident breeding populations is questionable; resolution of this uncertainty that are augmented in winter by non-breeding may result in change from a species to a migrants may have dual ranks, one each for the subspecies or hybrid, or the inclusion of this breeding (B) and non-breeding (N) components. taxon in another taxon, with the resulting taxon having a lower-priority conservation priority.

When submitting this form to ALNHP for processing, please enclose the following: 1. A letter formally requesting the information stating the nature of the project and how the information will be applied. 2. Preliminary reports and a copy of the USGS quadrangle(s) delineating the boundaries of the study area (if applicable).

Date Submitted: Date Information Needed: Contact Person: Title: Organization: Address: Phone: Fax: Information Type All ALNHP reports provide information on the following: • Plants & Animals (Federally listed, state protected, and rare species with no legal status), Natural Communities Locational Information USGS Quadrangle Name(s): County(ies): Legal Township & Range: Section(s):

Types of Data Provided by ALNHP (Please check and initial the type of data you wish to receive) By Quadrangle: In the interest of providing useful information regarding the biodiversity of any specific project site, ALNHP will research the USGS quadrangle on which the project site occurs as well the 8 surrounding quadrangles. A $40 fee will be charged for each quadrangle researched. A $25 processing fee will be charged. Therefore, the standard price estimate for a given project is $385 (9 * $40 + $25). Searches will not be made for a single quadrangle since what is documented does not accurately represent the rare flora and fauna of a given area. The report will include The Nature Conservancy's global and state ranks, as well as federal and state statuses of rare species documented. Each species will have locational data given to the nearest minute in precision. Species information provided will also include last observation of species and occurrence data recorded on site. In cases where rare species occur directly on the project area, ALNHP will provide latitude and longitude in seconds (for project area only) to the landowner. ALNHP will provide locational data in seconds at its own discretion and will determine this need on a case by case basis. By County with Element Occurrence Data: This report is useful when the information requested is to be used on a project of broad scope where information by county is more applicable. This report will include state and global ranks, federal and state statuses, and rare species locational data given in nearest minute of precision. The fee schedule will be as follows: 1-15 counties--$600; 16-30 counties--$1,200; 31-45 counties--$1,800; and 46-67 counties--$2,400. The $25 processing fee does not apply to these requests. By County List: This list provides a general overview of rare species located within a county and includes species name, global and state ranks, and federal and state statuses. The fee for this list is $25 per county. Minimum order of $100 required (4 counties). GIS: In the interest of providing useful information regarding the biodiversity of any specific project site, ALNHP will research the area of interest on which the site occurs in a GIS using client provided locational data (coordinates, map, or GIS file). The resulting data can be supplied as an ArcView shapefile, a report of findings, a map (8½ x 11 or 11 x 17), or a combination of these formats. The report (or shapefile) will include the same information as a by-quadrangle request report. GIS request fees will be quoted on a case by case basis and will be based on the area covered and amount of data included for the area; the minimum fee is $200. If locational data is provided to ALNHP in a non-digital format that requires digitizing, a digitizing fee will be added. Other: If the information requested does not relate to a specific quadrangle, county or counties, i.e. species characterization abstracts, source abstracts, etc., a fee of $200 per hour will be assessed. If the search will require more than two hours work, the requestor will be notified.

Any material supplied from the Alabama Natural Heritage Program will not be published without prior written permission, and without crediting the Alabama Natural Heritage Program as the source of material. All information remains the property of ALNHP and may not transferred to or used by any other party or individual. By signing below, the requestor agrees to the terms of this request and to its accuracy and completeness. The ALNHP will not be responsible for any inaccuracies in any data that it provides. Please be aware that the ALNHP's database cannot provide a conclusive statement on the presence, absence or condition of significant natural features in any part of Alabama. The response only summarizes the existing information regarding the natural features or the locations in question known to the ALNHP at the time of the request. The information should never be regarded as the final statement on the site being considered, nor should it be a substitute for field surveys required for environmental assessments. ALNHP reserves the right to reduce or waive charges to non-commercial users of the database.
